CHEMICAL MODIFICATION OF SPIRAMYCINS: V. SYNTHESIS AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF 3'-OR 4'''-DE-N-METHYLSPIRAMYCIN I AND THEIR N-SUBSTITUTED DERIVATIVES

The 3'- and 4'''-de-N-methylspiramycins were synthesized selectively, and then were converted to various N-substituted derivatives. 4'''-De-N-methyl derivatives were more active than 3'-de-N-methyl ones. Among the derivatives, 4'''-N-Fmoc-glycyl...

Description
Summary:The 3'- and 4'''-de-N-methylspiramycins were synthesized selectively, and then were converted to various N-substituted derivatives. 4'''-De-N-methyl derivatives were more active than 3'-de-N-methyl ones. Among the derivatives, 4'''-N-Fmoc-glycyl and 4'''-N-benzyl-4'''-de-N-methylspiramycin I were the most active in vitro, and were comparable to spiramycin I. 4'''-De-N-methylspiramycin I was about half as active as spiramycin I in vivo.
